FEATURE – Brian Maddock

I took a look in the mirror at my reflection,

and what did I see?

A mere image of who I used to be.

A glimpse of myself rearing nearer severe depression,

while in fear of the limit to my own aggression.

Is there any?

Nevertheless, then,

beyond a pale impression,

timid or ready,

I'll keep pressin' in a better direction;

the roads are many.

Although, the load is heavy,

there's no telling what lies around the next bend,

so no matter the section,

just stay steady.

There are plenty of miles to go while under duress over what we are destined.

I ask myself, "Is this a tiresome joke?"

Nope.

Take another guess…

“PURE PERFECTION.”
